,IMPROVEMENT IN PLOUGHS.

TO ALL WHOM IT MAY OONCERN:

V Be it known that I, FREEMAN F. REYNOLDS, of Burke county, State of Georgia, have invented certain Improvements in' Ploughs. I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawingand letters thereon.

Description.

A B, beam four feet long, (Wood.)| D D, handles three fcct six inches long, (wood.) 'E E, handle-brace, thirty-two inches long, so curved as to give beam A B two inches, and fifteen inches to handles. DD, (iron.) F, handle-rod, sixteen inches long, (iron or Wood.) G, helve, fifteen inches long, so curved forward as to bring plough bolt K within eleven inches of nether portion of beam A B, in a rectilinear line, (helve to be of ron,`} by virtue of which curve every plough becomes a self-sharpener. S, shoulderin helve. H, helve-brace, twenty inches in length,'(iron,) aixed to helve G, by shoulder S, and bolt K, and to beam A B by bolt N. J, detached guide bar, nine inches long, (ircn,) afixed to helve G- by two lateral bolts, P I?. L, wing of Allen or farm plough, without a weld, by virtue of detached guide bar J, and ailixed to helve G by bolt K. Every plough used in southern culture can be used on this stock, with or without the guide bar J. M, pivot to prevent side action. R, flange connecting helve G to beam A B. I

What I claim as new, and as my invention, and desire to secure Letters Patent for, is

The adjustment of guide bar J to belve G by bolts P P; t-hc advantage and object of which will be seen in above description, and as incidental to and necessary to the proper running of this stock; also the adjustment of brace H to helve G, by shoulder S and bolt K, and to beam A. B byV perpendicular bolt N, by virtue of which the ploughs are more easily adjusted to the stock, and less liability of choking, and strength'added thereto; the several parts being in combination as specified.
